On Sunday night (June 29), Deftones delivered a career-spanning performance at Crystal Palace Park in London, the day after being forced to withdraw from the Glastonbury 2025 lineup at the last minute due to illness in the band. Deftones teamed up with Weezer for the headline show, with the band showcasing a series of alt rock hits like “Be Quiet and Drive (Far Away)” and “My Own Summer (Shove It).” But what really intrigued the fans was a post-concert projection that hinted at potential new music from the band that will possibly be unveiled soon. The side screens displayed the mysterious text, “Private Music,” which had “X.VII.MMXXV distributed by Deftones, all rights reserved,” written underneath. The Roman numerals translate to July 10, 2025, leading fans to speculate that highly-anticipated new music from Deftones could be announced or released on that day. Deftones last studio album was 2020’s Grammy-nominated Ohms. (NME)
